arahbee 's review for:
The Argonauts
by Maggie Nelson
I listened to this on Audible.com. A very thoughtful, didactic book that was not what I expected, other than in theme (feminism/gender studies). I downloaded it as it was recommended on a podcast I enjoy, but its title let me to expect something more allegorical. Heads up: there's no golden fleece: the near-constant stream of references to noted scholars in the field got to be an irritant.
"The Argonauts" is an academic work, peppered and enlivened with Nelson's personal story and nuanced way with words. I enjoyed its journey through much more current threads in gender studies than what I experienced in college over 20 years ago.
